Air Bag question ????

Ok Guys quick question for ya.As you can see i have a 03 f-350 dually.The wife and i want to buy a camper,something like a 28 to 30 footer.It should come in at around 6000 to 8000 pounds.Do you guys think that my truck will need air bags to help with the load.Or even if it will give me a better ride towing the trailer.
We dont have a camper yet,but we will in the next year.Just trying to get ready for it.
Thanks for all the help !!!!

No you wont even come close to needing them but, When you have on board air like you it is not much more to put the air bags on.
